I believe it is off under 50lbs of weight, but the light is only on when there is enough weight for it to sense.

thats not totally true, there is a special weight which it activates at... only reason i know is my ex GF would sit in the pass seat and the light would come on that the bag was off.... added some books and stuff in her lap and it went off with the added weight.....

is it possible that the gel sensor from the original seats is crinkled?

Bringing the post back again, lol, anywho. I myself finally got the SVT seats in as well, but, the air bag light is still on, on the cluster....I did everything right, everything is plugged in right, but the light on the dash is still on, not sure why.

Any I also need to figure out how to get the power working on the driver's side...

Got mine in today, and just need to work on the wiring. I swear I saw a link to some other forum that explains the wiring; anyone know which thread that was in? Can't seem to locate it again...

Sweet... and the closer i look at the SVT seats, I think they may already be heated- there are two wires running up into the cushions, and I can't think of what else those would be for.

Does anyone know if you can:

1) wire up the power adjustments on the SVT seats to work if you didn't have stock power seats, and

2) If you can convert the SVT seats to heated seats?

My '06 has heated, manual adjustment seats and I just got some SVT seats- I'm curious to see if I can pull this off without losing any features.
